This study is to categorize the loading of multiple persons on a vertical building elements into three types to test the size of crowd pressure under each loading patterns. The loading patterns is divided under the combination of loading method and loading persons. The loading method is categorized into the method of instantaneous loading of hand on a force plate and the method of continuous loading. The loading persons has been composed of 1~5 persons under the loading patterns. The loading patterns is also divided into lateral loading, longitudinal loading, and agglomeration loading. The subject group has been composed of 12 males in 20s. The load measurement device(size 1800×600×36mm, capacity 20kN, rigidity 28kN/cm) has been designed and manufactured directly. To eliminate the difference of individual, the size of crowd pressure has been converted into the strength to weight ratio (maximum load/weight) for computation. The strength to weight ratio in lateral loading was about 0.91 under instantaneous loading and about 0.47 under continuous loading. The strength to weight ratio in longitudinal loading was about 0.65 under instantaneous loading and about 0.36 under continuous loading. The strength to weight ratio in agglomeration loading was about 0.65 under instantaneous loading and about 0.36 under continuous loading.

Cutouts are often provided in structural and aircraft components for ventilation, for access, inspection, electric lines and fuel lines or sometimes to lighten the structure. This paper addresses the effects of cutout shape (i.e., circular, square, diamond, elliptical-vertical and elliptical-horizontal) and size on buckling and postbuckling response of quasi-isotropic (i.e., $(+45/-45/0/90)_{2s}$) composite laminate under uni-axial compression. The finite element method is used to carry out the investigation. The formulation is based on first order shear deformation theory and von Karman's assumptions are used to incorporate geometric nonlinearity. The 3-D Tsai-Hill criterion is used to predict the failure of a lamina while the onset of delamination is predicted by the interlaminar failure criterion. It is observed that for the smaller size cutout area there is no significant effect of cutout shape on load-deflection response of the laminate. It is also concluded that the cutout size has substantial influence on the buckling and postbuckling response of the laminate with elliptical-horizontal cutout, while this effect is observed to be the least in case of laminate with elliptical-vertical cutout.

The purpose of this study was to characterize the upper body shape of men in their 50s and 60s by analyzing direct measurement data. Sixty one direct measurement items were analyzed. Subjects (n = 752) were classified based on 5 factors into 4 body types. In order to acquire accurate upper body shape information by analyzing body type using the 8th Size Korea direct measurement data, body shapes were classified through factor and cluster analysis. As a result of the comparative analysis of the upper body measurements from the 5th to the 8th Size Korea measurement, it was found that waist circumference item tended to increase significantly from the 5th Size Korea measurements. The upper body type of middle aged males were classified using five factors: the trunk obesity factor, the trunk vertical factor, the width of the back shoulder, the vertical factor behind the back, and the length factor of the upper body. Middle-aged men were classified into four body types through cluster analysis. Type 1 is relatively short with big arms, Type 2 has wide shoulders and thin arms, and in Type 3, the upper body is relatively long. Type 4 is the most obese upper body.

In order to accommodate huge number of antennas in a limited antenna size, a large scale antenna array is expected to have a three dimensional (3D) array structure. By using the Active Antenna Systems (AAS), the weights of the antenna elements arranged vertically could be configured adaptively. Then, a degree of freedom (DOF) in the vertical plane is provided for system design. So the three-dimension MIMO (3D MIMO) could be realized to solve the actual implementation problem of the massive MIMO. However, in 3D massive MIMO systems, the pilot contamination problem studied in 2D massive MIMO systems and the inter-cell interference as well as inter-vertical sector interference in 3D MIMO systems with vertical sectorization exist simultaneously, when the number of antenna is not large enough. This paper investigates the interference management towards the above challenges in 3D massive MIMO systems. Here, vertical sectorization based on vertical beamforming is included in the concerned systems. Firstly, a cooperative joint vertical beams adjustment and pilot assignment scheme is developed to improve the channel estimation precision of the uplink with pilots being reused across the vertical sectors. Secondly, a downlink interference coordination scheme by jointly controlling weight vectors and power of vertical beams is proposed, where the estimated channel state information is used in the optimization modelling, and the performance loss induced by pilot contamination could be compensated in some degree. Simulation results show that the proposed joint optimization algorithm with controllable vertical beams' weight vectors outperforms the method combining downtilts adjustment and power allocation.

We studied experimentally and theoretically the vertical range of the confined electric field in the gap area of metamaterials, which was analyzed for various gap widths using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. We measured the resonant frequency as a function of the thickness of poly(methyl methacrylate) in the range 0 to 3.2 μm to quantify the effective detection volumes. We found that the effective vertical range of the metamaterial is determined by the size of the gap width. The vertical range was found to decrease as the gap width of the metamaterial decreases, whereas the sensitivity is enhanced as the gap width decreases due to the highly concentrated electric field. Our experimental findings are in good agreement with the finite-difference time-domain simulation results. Finally, a numerical expression was obtained for the vertical range as a function of the gap width. This expression is expected to be very useful for optimizing the sensing efficiency.

Identification and sizing of surface breaking vertical cracks using angle beam ultrasonic testing in practical situation quite often become very difficult tasks due to the presence of non-relevant signals caused by geometric reflectors. The present work introduces effective and systematic approaches to take care of such a difficulty by use oi angle beam ultrasonic testing models that can predict the expected signals from various targets very accurately. Specifically, the model-based TIFD (Technique for Identification of Flaw signals using Deconvolution) is Proposed for the identification of the crack tip signals from the non-relevant geometric reflection signals. In addition, the model-based Size-Amplitude Curve is introduced for the reliable sizing of surface breaking vertical cracks.

The exhaust gas with solid particle goes through the riser in both particle circulating type and circulating fluidized bed type heat exchanger to recover the heat. During heat transfer, gas velocity in vertical riser decreases as viscosity of exhaust gas decreases. In this case, when the particle size is fixed, sometimes the exhaust gas happens to have lower velocity which prohibit them to go out of the riser. In this paper the particle motion in vertical Rayleigh flow was studied. The behavior of heat transfer was investigated by means of velocity and temperature distribution. The result from numerical analysis was validated by the experimental results. Fortran code was used to analyze the particle motion in vertical Rayleigh flow.

A faulting could be occurred at the end of deck by unexpected loads to bridge bearing after a bridge completion. Serviceability of bridges could be impaired by the faulting which is caused structural damage. Therefore, smart bridge bearing which can continuously observe the supporting points is needed. Some of bridge bearings have been developed for measuring vertical load and vertical displacement by installing sensors in the bearing. In those systems, however it is not easy to be replaced with new sensors when repairs are needed. In this study, the smart bridge bearing of which sensors can be replaced has been developed to overcome such a problem. In this study, strain signals were used for measuring both of vertical displacements and loads. FBG sensors(fiber optic Bragg-grating sensors) have been used for measurement of the strain signals since it is prevented from electronic noise by mediating light, enables the simplification of the measuring cable by multiple measurement, and is easy to place by lightweight and small size. The possibility of use was reviewed for smart bridge bearing based on FBG sensors through tests.

Various effluents generated in cooking processes contribute a great deal to indoor air pollution among many other indoor pollutants such as dusts from outdoor and carbon dioxide from human body. Kitchen exhaust hoods are not believed to exhaust indoor contaminants properly in many cases, while generating too much noise. Instead of focusing on individual products of kitchen hoods, we should address the problem by attacking the ventilation system as a whole including vertical shafts and building air-tightness. In this study, it is intended to investigate the pressure distribution along the vertical shaft depending on various system parameters, such as shaft size, concurrent hood usage rate, roof fan, inlet pressure loss, and outdoor temperature. The maximum static pressure in the vertical shaft has been obtained using the method of design of experiments and analyzed by the analysis of variance. The results can be used for the design of kitchen exhaust systems by analyzing the pressure distributions in vertical shafts.

Gulf Stream 인근해역에서 해양 중규모 와동의 삼차원 구조분석을 HYCOM 수치모델을 사용하여 수행하였다. 시계방향 및 반시계 방향으로 회전하는 와동들의 구조를$1/12^{\circ}$와 $1/48^{\circ}$ 두개의 모델 해상도를 사용하여 비교하였다. 라그랑지안 모수인 Finite Size Lyapunov Exponent (FSLE) 와 Okubo-Weiss parameter(OW) 분포를 분석한 결과 표층의 와동구조가 수심 깊은 곳까지 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 와동에 의한 수평방향 해수운동이 수직방향 해수운동보다 크기 때문인 것으로 해석되었다. 고해상도 모델의 경우 와동근처에서 10 km 미만의 미세난류구조 들이 많이 발견되었으며, 이러한 미세난류구조들은 고해상도 모델의 와동근처에서 해수의 움직임을 저해상도 모델보다 불규칙하게 만드는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 미세난류구조에 의한 해수의 불규칙한 움직임은 분산계수 (dispersion coefficient)에도 영향을 미치는데, 수평 분산계수의 경우 해수운동이 자유로운 고해상도 모델이 저해상도 모델보다 그 값이 더 크게 나타났다. 수직 분산계수의 값은 저해상도 모델에서 더 크게 나왔는데, 이는 와동의 경사진 궤도를 따라 움직이는 저해상도 모델의 해수운동이 수직 분산계수값을 증가시키기 때문인 것으로 들어났다. 상대 수직 분산계수의 경우 이러한 궤도의 영향이 줄어들기 때문에 해수의 수직운동을 측정하는데 있어 절대 수직 분산계수 보다 더 적합한 것으로 판명되었다.
